Valve Wants You to Enjoy Searching Every Corner of Half-Life: Alyx

I keep seeing B&S mentioned, I've played it. No, it isn't that good. It manages to avoid the unlimited strength -> glitched out ragdoll problem (mostly) but actually hitting shit just feels weak because your hand will just keep going. If you're blocked you have this weird disconnect between what your hand is actually doing vs where your weapon is going in game.

B&S does it better but it's still kinda shit melee, which isn't really it's fault. The tools for good melee don't exist right now. tbh I don't think they will exist unless we get really crazy wearables for VR, and good luck making that comfortable, durable, and not cost an arm and a leg by itself.
